PhagoPied: Standard Treatment Associated With Phage Therapy Versus Placebo for Diabetic Foot Ulcers Infected by S. Aureus
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of standard treatment associated with a topical anti-staphylococcal bacteriophage cocktail versus standard treatment plus placebo for diabetic foot ulcers monoinfected by methicillin-resistant or susceptible S. aureus (MRSA or MSSA) as measured by the relative reduction in wound surface area (%) at 12 weeks.

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
The secondary objectives of this study are:
-
To compare the two study arms in terms of treatment safety and tolerance throughout the study.
-
To compare the two study arms in terms of further changes in wound healing at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12.
-
To describe the changes in the resistance and virulence of S. aureus (if present in the wound) from baseline to week 4, at modification of the first-line treatment or new antibiotic prescription (if any) and at week 12 if the wound is still not healed.
-
To describe in the two study arms the antibiotic resistance status of other bacteria isolated from wounds at week 4, at modification of the first-line treatment or new antibiotic prescription (if any) and at week 12 if the wound is still not healed.
-
To describe in the two study arms changes in wound microbiota from baseline to week 4, at modification of the first-line treatment or new antibiotic prescription (if any) and at week 12 if the wound is still not healed.
-
To describe the production of anti-phage antibodies during the topical treatment: baseline and week 4, at modification of the first-line treatment or new antibiotic prescription (if any), and at week 12.
-
Creation of a biobank for future ancillary studies (including, but not limited to, cytokine levels and cellular immune responses): days 0 and week 4, as well as week 12.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Phage therapy Patients randomized to this arm will have phage therapy. Intervention: Topical anti-Staphylococcus bacteriophage therapy |
Drug: Topical anti-Staphylococcus bacteriophage therapy
Patients randomized to the experimental arm will receive sterile compress dressings impregnated with a phage solution of 10^7 PFU/ml on days 0, 7 and 14 (unless the wound is already healed, i.e. phage solutions are not applied to healed wounds).
|
| Placebo Comparator: Placebo Patients randomized to this arm will have placebo therapy anologous to that of the experimental arm. Intervention: Topical placebo corresponding to anti-Staphylococcus bacteriophage therapy |
Drug: Topical placebo corresponding to anti-Staphylococcus bacteriophage therapy
Patients randomized to the placebo arm will receive sterile compress dressings impregnated with a placebo solution on days 0, 7 and 14 (unless the wound is already healed, i.e. placebo solutions are not applied to healed wounds).
